so one of the ally ships, what can be considered an a-bomb, and pretty much wiped out the ziabach forces, and hitomi and falken go to the capital, where both falken and dornkirk die, and then something strange happens, i wonder what?

there's still a lot to resolve in this show + there's only one episode left. still hoping it ends strongly, but i'm not too sure it can keep up the momentum that's been going over the past few episodes.

Looks like an underwhelming show is headed for an underwhelming finale. I thought Folken's death was really well done though. He made no impression on me at first, but now he's probably my favorite character of the lot.

(rewatching again)

Dornkirk down. Now we enter the zone of absolute fortune anyways (the Atlantis machine). The scene where Folken kills him is just one of those great moments.

So Donkirk dies and then he comes back? idk. But the part where Folken died as a result of him killing Donkirk did make sense. I guess Maybe Dnokirk had all the good luck blood in him?

First half was pretty zzz but the second half was cool.

Last episode. tbh this series isn't bad but I'm kinda done with it. Let's see how they wrap it up!

Folken died to kill Dornkirk.. then Dornkirk comes back? So he died for no reason? And Hitomi can you just shut up for one second? Yelling out "NOOOO" isn't going to change anything. I feel like slapping you with a frying pan.

Other than that, I really look forward to seeing what happens with Dilandau.

So till now all I enjoyed in this show was the ost and van killing the baddies until hitomi screws it up of course.

I'm sorry but I've laughed (and I'm still laughing) with Folken's death because holy shit the sword. What the fuck.

Plus that furry dog makes me laugh too because his eyes, HIS EYES it's like I'm looking at this:

I don't think I ever really noticed Zaibach off in the distance (the city lights).

The anime is wrapping up now. Folken died. I've always wondered "Don't people get hurt when they sword break???" and I guess I have an answer now. lol

Let's see how it ends. I really loved it midway through, but the last episodes have put me off a bit. Let's see, let's see

Van gives up on using Hitomi's power for war after seeing the destruction, in contrast to that "I need you" conversation a few episodes ago.

I just realised that the Dog Dude with Dilandau looks a lot like Allen.

Folken is dead and I just couldn't care less. Onto the final episode so I can be done with this series.

On top of a plot full of loose end we now a super bomb out of no where to even the field for the good guys that was never built up. (Sigh). This anime is really disappointing me hard now.

At this point I feel Dornkirk is just tripping. Allen's a player and way too full of himself. Van's always got to fight. Dryden doing the noble thing (as a quick plot loophole to get Allen and Millerna together, but whatevs). Merle's being cute. Folken going on a suicide mission.

Biggest problem for me: How'd Hitomi get back her school uniform when she was brought back to Gaea in her running clothes?

OMG i dunno how this anime will have an ending in one last chapter unless it's double lenght, i'm with the expectation that they'll solve something with dilandu and allen and millerna

HAHAHAHAHA! Folken's sword chips and bounces into his heart and kills him? What a joke of a death, hahahaha! They could have done literally anything else and it would have been less stupid than that.

I will say though, this show really is a visual feast. I'm a sucker for this particular brand of 90s animation and despite clearly wanting to mostly be a gawky romance isekai where the handsome princes fight over the frankly rather plain and uninteresting high school girl, Sunrise went balls out on the action.
